Die Komposition des Buches Jes. c. 28-33.

This scholarly work dives deep into the puzzling structure of a biblical text, focusing on chapters twenty‑eight through thirty‑three. The author begins by mapping out the internal links among the prophetic fragments, weighing their formal and thematic similarities while also noting the abrupt and seemingly disjointed passages that break the flow. By comparing the pieces to earlier commentaries, the study sketches a clear picture of which sections likely stem from the original prophet and which belong to later editorial hands.

The second part shifts to the non‑prophetic layers, probing how they relate to the core material and to each other, and exploring the possibility of multiple authors contributing over time. Throughout, the dissertation emphasizes the importance of reconstructing the text’s compositional history, not merely to settle academic debates but to illuminate the broader cultural and theological backdrop of the era. Listeners will appreciate a meticulous, thought‑provoking journey into biblical criticism, grounded in rigorous analysis and a genuine quest for understanding.
